Knight-Captain Rylen Appreciation Event
Hello and welcome to the first ever Knight-Captain Rylen Appreciation Event! I’d say ‘week’, but we will be sticking to only five days for our first time. If you’ve participated in events of similar shape in the past, this will be a familiar drill. If it’s not, please look below and get yourself familiar with the themes, the guidelines, and submission rules. Let the fun begin!
Themed Days
DAY 1 - Monday, February 26th: Knight-Captain Rylen, the Templar
Rylen has spent multiple years as a Templar at the Starkhaven circle and he certainly has many stories to tell from his time there. What were his experiences? What was his first Harrowing like? Did he get along with his Knight-Commander? This is the day to tell us!
DAY 2 - Tuesday, February 27th: Rylen and the Inquisition
Rylen becomes Commander Cullen’s second-in-command during the Inquisition and by all accounts, he does a phenomenal job of it. Let’s explore what that means! Is he softer on new recruits who never held a blade before? Does he butt heads with Cassandra? Does he accept the Herald immediately or does he take some time to warm up to the idea? We are dying to know.
DAY 3 - Wednesday, February 28th: Family and friends of Knight-Captain Rylen
Rylen is the fifth - and youngest - child of a stonemason family in Starkhaven, but we know little of them. What kind of headcanons do you have about his childhood? Or maybe you want to see him with a family of his own? Perhaps there’s that one time he got super drunk with Lace Harding at The Singing Maiden and they sang embarrassing songs together? What is his relationship with Cullen like? The sky is the limit.
DAY 4 - Thursday, March 1st: Rylen, the man of romance
The sexiest man from Starkhaven to ever join the Inquisition doesn’t have an official love interest. Is he gay, straight or bisexual? Or maybe he doesn’t care in what shape his love comes, as long as they love him back. Either way, share the stories of love - or heartbreak - that pertain to the Captain! Is he pining for the Inquisitor? Did one of the soldiers catch his eye? Or maybe there’s a women in his past that he cannot forget? We are all sitting at the edge of our seats to find out.
DAY 5 - Friday, March 2nd: Captain Rylen, the pet detective, aka the AU day
Why limit yourself to only one version of Rylen? Why not find out what he would be like as a police officer, or a fire fighter, or a security officer? Why not see him act in a soap opera? Can we put him in a kilt and have him run the moors of Scotland? I’m sure he’d be stunning in noir-type story as a jaded detective who gets a visit from gorgeous woman in a red dress. We desperately need all of it.
But wait! What if my creation fits more than one theme?
Good question! Choose one of them (roshambo is an option...) and go with it!
What if none of the themes quite work for my creation?
That is unfortunate on our part (we’ll try better next time), but see which theme feels closest and post/tag on that day.
Guidelines
1. All works need to pertain to Knight-Captain Rylen in some (broad) shape or form. It may be an ensemble piece, but he has to be in it. Duh. 2. All forms of art are allowed: fanfiction, fanart, mood boards, mods, gifs, songs, videos, etc. If you make it, we will reblog it. 3. This event is supposed to foster appreciation and overall positivity in regards to Rylen. Any promotion or condoning of bigotry, racism, homophobia, sexism, etc. will not be allowed. Please be mindful of others, it’s not that hard. 4. Please refrain from graphic depictions of abuse, gratuitous violence, incest, pedophilia, bestiality, etc. There is a time and place for such things and this event is not one of them. 5. NSFW works are absolutely allowed during this event. Please mark them with appropriate tags when you make your submissions. If anything on this list is unclear, or if you have questions about how your creation fits within the guidelines, please send an ask and someone will get back to you ASAP. This is the first year of the event and we’re trying to make this go as smoothly as possible.
How To Submit?
1. FOR NEW POSTS
If you created something specifically for Rylen Appreciation Week, please post it to your own blog on the appropriate theme day, then tag it with #RylenAppreciationWeek and which day it is for. Please don’t use ’@’ for this blog because Tumblr is known to ignore those and we’d hate to miss your submission.
2. FOR REBLOGS OR EXTERNAL LINKS
If you created something in the past, but you still wish to share it, please submit a link through submission section with appropriate tags and a mod will reblog from the original source. It can be from Tumblr or from AO3, it’s all fine.
PLEASE NOTE!!! You may only submit works that you have created yourself. You may not submit for someone else, ESPECIALLY without their consent and/or express approval.
DO NOT submit the same creation through link submission and through tagging. It creates extra work for the moderators which makes them cranky. Cranky mods like to eat bloggers who don't follow guidelines for breakfast.
Do allow for 12-24 hours for your creation to show up on this blog. People have jobs and need to sleep. If you still don't see it after that time, contact us and we'll investigate.
As per usual, if you have any other questions that were not covered by this post, please don’t hesitate to drop an ask in the inbox and we’ll try to sort things out ASAP. Cuz we’re cool like that.
HAPPY CREATING!
No One Touches Lola Tuesdays: the best way to get in any car, especially Lola
No One Touches (Lola) Tuesday ↳ “I’m the Corvette in this story. Right?” ❤︎
Unless you’re Daisy Johnson ❤︎
For ‘No One Touches (Lola) Tuesday’
Throwback Thursday: their very first hug! ❤︎
For our first post for ‘Don’t Touch Lola Tuesday’, we give you a playlist dedicated to our favorite Red Corvette! Director Puppyface and I thought long and hard about what songs evoke such scenes as the chase with Ghost Riders Hell Charger, falling out of a plan, or just driving around looking hot.
